Change in scanning status update?

[sticky]

Hi,

In version 3.2, when a remote scan was triggered for an individual device from the website, you could refresh the page and watch as the different items were updated under the scan list.

In version 3.5, the list doesn't appear to update until all items have been scanned.

Has this been changed by design? Not a big deal, but it was useful/nice to see as the different sections were scanned so that I at least knew the scans were under way.

I know, but you don't know the scan is complete until either an error occurs or results are returned in the scan fields (which you have to scroll down to check). Not really intuitive for new users. Something really obvious such as a 'scan status' with different values like 'scanning', 'succeeded', 'succeeded with errors' would be good. Or even just an LED like image that is green when scanning, red when not.

As soon as you launch the lstrigger and press refresh you should see the "lastseen" data change. (this means the scan is in progress)

Ok fair enough - a trade off between database performance and user feedback I can understand.

Still, it was useful to know a scan was under way. How about having an indicator on the computer details page to indicate a scan is underway?

This was changed by design.
In the past you needed about 30 hits to the database, now just one
